tenths of strangers go by boat. The distance is about 

 four miles, the road winding by the shore, here shut in by 

 dense woods, and at the next turn reveahng, perhaps, a

THE VALLEY OF GLENCOIN. 

 (4 miles. ) 



We have already seen the dale from the lake. We must 

 now conduct the tourist thither by land, and see how full it 

 is of tempting subjects for the artist's pencil. About a 

 mile beyond the Ullswater Hotel there is a lane on the left 

 which leads into the ^Izntoin valley. Shortly before reach- 

 ing the lane, there is a gate into the wood ; by taking this 

 path a corner will be cut off, and a very fine view of the 

 lake seen. The dale is a retired, out-of-the-world sort of 

 place, so much so that some of the houses in it go by the 

 name of ' seldom seen,' so completely are they hidden from 

 the view of the passing stranger ; there is much, however, 

 in the many beautiful pictures which it affords to repay an 

 hour's ramble up it. At its head there is a path across the 

 hills to the Glenridding valley, but we do not recommend 

 this to the tourist unless he desires to pay a visit to the 

 mines on his way home. 



GLENRIDDING AND THE SILVER MINES. 



(3 miles. )

The chief inducement for visiting it is to see the lead-mines 



and the works connected with them. The stranger may be 



perhaps surprised to hear that 2,000 ounces of silver, besides
